Magnet Broadband in Letterkenny

redt0m

Saw an old thread saying Magnet Broadband might be setting up in Letterkenny - did they ever do so and, if anyone has them, are they any good?

Thanks.

I'm waiting on a call back from them now actually, they say they cover but they guy didn't know full story and he said someone from sales will ring me back.

will let you know, is it town center or outside of town that you are?

Thanks Dannie - up the Mountain Top here

danniemcq

have you a phone line installed already?

redt0m

Don't have an eircom account but as far as I know there is a line coming into the house - we all have mobiles here, so never bothered setting a landline up

danniemcq

yeah i'm the same so we pretty much are looking for the same deal, is it BB only that you are looking for or calls etc too

redt0m

I'd be looking for broadband only

danniemcq

No broadband only package to Letterkenny

redt0m

Cheers for asking anyway

danniemcq

try wimax, thats what i have at the minute, no lines required, not sure how good it would be up there though, apart from that SMART are your best bet, need a phoneline but don't need a phone or anything

redt0m

Aye, was wondering about that Wimax - I'm trying to avoid paying eircom the most expensive landline rental in the world

danniemcq

ring wimax and give your address, the tower they use is at post office and if you can't pick it up they will add on a booster for 100 quid or somthing

redt0m

Is that tower at the Post Office on Main Street or at the new sorting office beside Sweeney's Driving School?

its a joke that theres so little choice in Donegal for broadband.. im currently with eircom & it means im paying for a land line that i neither want or need
